A video showing a young girl lying on a floor in a visibly distressed and contorted state has gone viral on social media, with those who shared the footage claiming she became possessed after watching an occult-themed movie.
The clip, which has attracted significant attention and debate online, shows the young woman dressed in a yellow outfit on a wooden floor in what appears to be a domestic setting.
A caption overlay on the video reads: “Nah movie we Dey watch wey turn to reality oo”, a Pidgin English phrase suggesting that the scene unfolding before the camera began as a fictional movie but manifested in reality.
The video has generated widespread reactions across West African social media, with viewers divided between those who interpreted the incident as a genuine case of spiritual possession and those who dismissed it as a staged performance or a medical episode being mischaracterised.
No medical assessment of the young woman’s condition was included in the footage, and the circumstances surrounding the incident including its location, the identities of those present, and what occurred before and after filming have not been independently verified.
The video remains unverified, and viewers are advised to approach the footage and its accompanying claims with critical discernment.
